Sydenham Town Forum

I've found that Lewisham council respond very quickly to flytipping. Go to www.fixmystreet.com and report it there.

Thanks for the update biscuitman. Am so looking forward to my first drink there.

Why is it that everywhere else they have nice lights on the lamp posts with no problems of bulbs blowing in the heavy rain but in Sydenham it is a big enough concern to concede with these boring lights? Who's idea is it for BLUE lights?? The most un-Christmassy colour EVER. Why not traditional green...

Definitely much better than what was there before.

Maybe a job for SEE3. Do they still exist? Has all the money gone?

Rod, nothing was directed at you personally.

I was agreeing with the frustration that was vented.

Thank you Pally for bringing Xmas decorations subject back into focus.

Well said Jay B.

Whatever happened to SEE3? Do they not have any influence any more?

Can the local representatives of the council please ensure that Sydenham has decent lamppost/street decorations in the High Street this year? And a half decent, bushy, Christmas tree with proper colourful Christmas lights? Is it too much to ask if we can possibly have a better looking town centre th...

Ben / Pat, If you are in touch with the owner please can I suggest that they protect the greyhound statues at the entrance whilst the building work is in progress. I am amazed that they are not protected. I work in construction consulting and this would be a priority requirement on behalf of our cli...

My black bin wasn't emptied today. So annoying

Don't you mean call 101?

I appreciate your comment Stuart. I am disgusted at Eagle's IGNORAN remark about Big Issue sellers. They are not beggars.

It's only a bunch of bicycles for goodness sake! We're not talking about juggernauts! Get on with it and get it sorted so that another derelict building can come back into use sharpish. FFS!

One Frustrated Local Resident

Does anyone else have a problem with their brown bin/garden waste collections being missed on a regular basis and wonder why they've wasted £60/year fee for the privilege of such an unreliable service? Or is it just me and my neighbours? :( Lewisham Council need to address this problem and not ignor...

Keep 'em peeled and be careful out there.

There's one at Sydenham Station.

Prince,
Thanks for contacting the owner and arranging the tidy up.

Looks like a nightmare to me! Get ready for a lot of confusion and accidents

There was always one outside the old Co-op supermarket but she wasn't begging as she was selling the Big Issue. Maybe it's her? I don't mind it if they are selling the Big Issue but if they are just begging then that's not good.

I noticed the tidy surroundings today too. What a positive difference it makes when it is weed-free and the fences upright.
